SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA — Satake Australia and Petkus Technologie Germany announced on Jan. 27 that they have entered a cooperation agreement for the sale and support of Petkus seed and grain processing equipment in Australia. Working with Petkus Australia Pacific Pty Ltd, Satake Australia will integrate the Petkus equipment into projects and specify for individual machine requirements.

The companies noted that this agreement brings together Petkus’ industry leading products with Satake Australia’s local engineering, design and installation capabilities. Both PETKUS and Satake are known international companies and Satake is known for building some of the largest and most advanced seed cleaning, pulse processing, flour and feed milling plants in the region, as well as serving the nut and other bulk processing industries.

“Petkus are one of the world leaders in mechanical seed cleaning, grain drying and seed coating equipment,” Roger Cook, head of sales and service for Satake Australia, said. “Satake is delighted to be building on the cooperation agreements already in place between Satake and Petkus in other parts of the world and bringing them to Australia. The Australian seed cleaning industry will benefit from modern mechanical systems from Petkus packaged with advanced color sorting and turnkey project delivery from Satake.”
